Mr. John Corrigan:

I do not decide my own salary. That is the salary that was decided. The salary when I was appointed was €490,000. It is a big amount of money. It was determined at the time, as I recall, by the Minister of the day by comparison with what chief executives in the banks were earning, given the responsibilities. In monetary terms, taking the assets and liabilities which are managed - if you can add assets and liabilities - we have a total stock of about €320 billion under our stewardship and the cash flow last year through the NTMA was €1.3 trillion. I do not determine my pay. It is determined elsewhere. I think that is all I want to say about it.
